What do we think of each other?

[Veritas]

Here's a link so you can let me know of the impression I make on others. I wonder which of my personalities this link would describe?:giggle:

http://kevan.org/johari?view=scarletpeaches

Heh. I thought it would be fun if others made their own links and posted them, so we could mark-up each other's profiles. :D

[ms_ann_thrope]

Do me! Do me! http://kevan.org/johari?name=ms_ann_thrope

[freemonkey]

Do me! Do me!

I, uh, did you.

Now, you do me (http://kevan.org/johari?name=freemonkey) :wink:

[Legs]

I did you sp... now do me (http://kevan.org/johari?name=Legsy)

[Petra]

I done you all! :D

and me and me!!!! http://kevan.org/johari?name=IamMoose

[ChuckF]

Interesting concept. It seems to me that those adjectives are generally very positive. So positive, in fact, that it would be difficult to give an honest appraisal of most personalities.

[MooseIBe]

That's what I thought... there should be at least SOME negative! I mean, I don't want people to vote that they consider me intelligent jsut cos there's no 'thick as a plank' option ;)

If there were negatives, it would be open to abuse. Not that you lot would abuse the system, being such frank and fair people...:chuckle:

I'm gonna enjoy 'doing' Dickwad.:slide:

[SharonDee]

There's a Nohari list out there, too. You know, for those of you ready to learn the Negatives Side.

[Veritas]

Post it! Post it!

[SharonDee]

Here it is. (http://kevan.org/nohari) Don't say I never gave you nuttin'.

[Veritas]

Already googled it!

Here's mine:

[MooseIBe]

At the risk of hurt feelings all round ;) you can do a negative one too. here is mine:

[Dingfod]

I'm not going to fill out anyone's negative one.

But you can mine: http://kevan.org/nohari?name=Dingfod

[godfry n. glad]

My Nohari window is here: http://kevan.org/nohari?name=godfry

I'd be interested in your input, Dingfod. Honestly. Of course, after you've completed that, you can assuage my scarred personality by going to my Johari window, here:

http://kevan.org/johari?name=godfry

[freemonkey]

FWIW, I made a Nohari (http://kevan.org/nohari?name=freemonkey) for myself.

[MooseIBe]

Ahem ;). I don't mind people doing my negative one but it's not good to do it anonymously really .. I'd prefer people put their names :)

[MooseIBe]

Hmm actually I can see why that person didn't leave their name on mine now .. I just tried to do Warren's and it's really tricky :(. I'll have to think about it. I will leave my correct name if I do the negative one but it's hard to make those comments about people without being able to explain what you mean by them!

[Dingfod]

Don't worry about it on mine, I won't even look at who said what. I don't want to know.

[Dingfod]

My Nohari window is here: http://kevan.org/nohari?name=godfry

I'd be interested in your input, Dingfod. Honestly.I'm not going to fill out anyone's negative one.Na-na-ga-doit. Wouldn't be prudent at this conjuncture.[/Dana Carvey doing GHWB]

[Legs]

:sadcheer: these negative ones could lead to a lot of hurt feelings.

[Dingfod]

Not gonna doit.

[MooseIBe]

Yeah .. it's a lousy format. I think it would have been way better if they'd amalgamated the two so you could post some positives and some negatives. When i actually tried to do it I realised that I really wasn't prepared to choose six words from that list to describe Warren or Godfry without being able to talk over the results or indicate to what degree I felt that these were flaws.

Well, somebody who wishes to remain anonymous (by using a pseudo-pseudonym) jumped right on my Nohari. They managed to hit a couple of the ones I couldn't include because I was limited to just six. :D

[MooseIBe]

yeah the same anonymous - I presume - person did mine :). I don't like the idea of people doing it without leaving a name - it becomes an exercise in slinging mud ;)

Mind insecure and needy are dead on for me :D

They managed to hit a couple of the ones I couldn't include because I was limited to just six. :DWasn't me. Not gonna do it. I'm not half as cowardly as one would have to be to post negative shit anonymously. If I did, you'd know it because I'd either use my real name or my current username.

[MooseIBe]

It does seem to be rather cowardly to do it anonymously, yeah.

[Dingfod]

Mind insecure and needy are dead on for me :DI'm not saying they're off the mark on me, not that far anyway.

[MooseIBe]

Sorry I meant they were relevant to me .. I haven't done yours, will have to think about it :). The thing is, I can think of some negative words from that list that might apply to you but to choose them suggests that I think them bigger flaws than I really do so .. I dunno. I will have to think carefully before I do anyone negative..

[MooseIBe]

I did Godfry's :). But I'd like to point out that some of those things that I chose I only think in a very small way and they don't overshadow his positive qualities ;)

[Plant Woman]

Ok I did you all (only positives though).

Was it good for you too?

[godfry n. glad]

I did Godfry's :). But I'd like to point out that some of those things that I chose I only think in a very small way and they don't overshadow his positive qualities ;)

It's not a problem, Moosey. You hit a couple that my co-workers tell me to my face on regular occasion...

[MooseIBe]

LOL .. I have no problem with people hitting the ones that I know very well about myself already. The only weird thing is when people have said things that I did not consider about myself (brash, for instance).

[SharonDee]

I haven't been playing. I found myself selecting traits for people that I like to think I have. Apparently, in my universe, I am you and you are me ... or some shit.

[Legs]

(brash, for instance).
That's crazy. I have never seen you be even a hint of brash.

[MooseIBe]

I guess it's hard to come up with six .. I had difficulty on the couple of negative ones I have done (the other was my boyfriend's :)). But it won't let you submit less than six .. or maybe it's five .. but at least five.

[Adam]

Is this johari/nohari thing a recent creation? A real life friend (also an ex) had me fill one out for her just a few days ago. I balked at the ngative one, but she twisted my arm. I'm still not sure if I gave objective answers or just picked the things that pissed me off about her when we were dating, but she was warned and wouldn't let me recuse myself, so eh.

I didn't do anyone's here, because I don't think I know enough about any of you to give meaningful answers. It was hard enough trying to be meaningful and objective about my real life friend, I can't imagine trying to do the same for people I know much less well.

[ms_ann_thrope]

Johari/Nohari server connection has been spotty for me, but this is fun! :cheer:

[pescifish]

Yeah .. it's a lousy format. I think it would have been way better if they'd amalgamated the two so you could post some positives and some negatives.Yes! It really would be much better if they gave us more selections and had both negative and positives in the same inputs.

I did a few of the joharis, but I ain't doin' noharis. I know too many folks are so down on themselves it's their only real passion; to be able to wallow all up in negative comments from others would be way too orgasmic for them. I'm not interested in reinforcing anyone's wrong thinking during their depressive moments.

[MooseIBe]

heh yeah it's a bit of a jolt to see the negative ones, though i certainly don't enjoy it ;) But as a separate thing I think it's a bad idea. i wonder if there's anywhere you can do both?

[godfry n. glad]

(brash, for instance).
That's crazy. I have never seen you be even a hint of brash.

You? Brash? I think not.

Now, I'm brash (as in insolent, impudent) - on occasion.

And fragment, now he would be brash (look it up, it's in my dictionary).

I sorta had brash as the same thing as rash (and it is a synonym), but looking at the definitions, one can be rash brash.

[godfry n. glad]

And while we're on the topic...

Moosey says: : hostile, loud, intolerant, brash, dispassionate, inflexible

It's the bolded ones which interest me. I can clearly understand the others.

As for loud, I think it's impossible for anyone here to know that about me unless they read the few posts I mentioned it. Perhaps you were thinking of "lout"? That I could fully accept.

Now, as for dispassionate, that I find most curious. Do you really think of me as dispassionate? It's just because I've had several acquaintances and friends refer to me as "passionate" (and not entirely in a positive association), but never "dispassionate", so I'm a bit puzzled.

Then there are those posters whom I'd lurve to fill out both of mine: liv, vm, warren, godless dave, AspenMama, ManM, TomJoe, LadyShea, justaman, Leesifer, lisarea, Maddog, JoeP, Blake, Lone Ranger...and many, many others.

Thank you, Moosey, for your candor. And I understand entirely about the relative aspects.

[MooseIBe]

well the trouble is you have to pick at least five or it won't accept your answer :). and with some I was winging it cos I just didn't know you well enough to say. Loud, I had no clue about - it was just a presumption based on the others. Dispassionate I put because I thought that you seem not to care much what others think of you. But it really IS hard to think of five with a person you're not well acquainted with ..

[godfry n. glad]

Yeah, it's not just that either. It's a limited set from which to choose, as well. I don't see things like "miserly" or "spendthrift". Some of these qualities you have to stretch to get them to mean what you want them to mean. Then, of course, there's always the matter of interpretation of the terms.

I can see your usage of "dispassionate" now that I understand how you're using it. And yes, I actually thought it was amusing the two anonymous types who jumped right on the negative bandwagon....and nothing on the positive side. I'm obviously on their shitlist.

:roflmao:

[MooseIBe]

I'd never thought of it like that .. I had two anonymous people on my list and I presumed it was people who had given their name on the positive list but refused to on the negative ... hmm .. maybe it wasn't :). But yeah I am annoyed that two people 'did' me anonymously... I'd much have preferred them to use names :).

But yeah the list to chose from was not a good one. I've done about three or four negative lists now (you are the only one I have done from here cos you are the only one from here who has publically done mine .. the rest I have done are from my site) and I have in each case really struggled to find enough words to fill the quota.

Which is not to say that I found it easy to attach some of those words to you either, even if they did correspond with your assessment of yourself! I can see a little bit of something in someone without really finding it a significant part of their personality or something that bothers me much. I really wish there was an amalgamated list somewhere where you could pick negative AND positive.

[Dingfod]

:roflmao:You and me both, pal.

[godfry n. glad]

Awwww... I'm just a sentimental old fool...ol' foo'...oaf?

[MooseIBe]

Hmm I see you got a couple too and interestingly, one of the ones who 'did' you did not do me, unless they did so under a different anonymous name.

For what it's worth, I have only done Godfry from this site because he is the only one who 'did' my negative one. I sort of regret starting the negative thing though :(.

[freemonkey]

don't think I know enough about any of you to give meaningful answers. It was hard enough trying to be meaningful and objective about my real life friend, I can't imagine trying to do the same for people I know much less well.
This is true. And I agree, its much too hard to choose 5 or 6 negative qualities. Because of that, and also because no one really knows me very well, I don't think I'd let any of the responses color my perception of myself. Not without, as Moose put it, explanations of why those words were chosen, anyway. :hm:

[Miisa]

Like I posted on euroforum, it seems the makers of the test classified the antonym to "religious" to be "unethical".
:saywhat:

I haven't been able to do anyones negatives, either. Haven't bothered posting the link to mine here, as I doubt very many of you feel you know me anywhere near close enough to comment.

[MooseIBe]

Yeah that sucks :). But the word religious means different things .. it doesn't have to mean 'believing in the Christian God.' I can be religious about eating ice-cream, for instance..

THough, they probably DID mean it about believing in the Christian God :(

[godfry n. glad]

(Dognamed! Once again I inadvertantly posted a perfectly good post to the ether.) :computer:

Anyhoo...

I was rather curious about that attribution, too. Pescifish assigned it to me. I'm not quite sure how she used it. I don't consider myself religious at all. Irreligious, maybe. Zealous, for sure; if I deem the occasion merits it. So I'm not quite sure how the term has been applied.

This is what I mean about problems with interpretation of the terms.:search:

I think they should allow the Noharis responders to select just one term and say, in effect, this is the one or two aspects of your personality that I find objectionable.

C'mon. How many people here have had days that they are just plain "bitchy"? Or "grouchy"? (Which I didn't see either on those word lists.) And, know, or noticed, others who experience the same kind of "off-day" crap. I do. And, I certainly don't claim to be the frickin' Prince of Peace around here. :innocent:

Not a single one of us in infallible. I kinda like it that way.

[godfry n. glad]

Sorry, man, I can't find enough descriptors to use in order to register.

Zealous, for sure; if I deem the occasion merits it. So I'm not quite sure how the term has been applied.I meant zealous. Zealous about those things that you have passion for. You have opinions and convictions and you stick to them with great zeal and passion.

[MooseIBe]

Just picking one or two would definitely be better. Most people can find two things about their friends that annoy them but six? If you can think of six things, I can't see why you'd be friends with that person at all ;). Hence, with all of the negatives I've done I've ended up just putting some qualities down just to fill up numbers and not because I think they're applicable.

[Dingfod]

I'm not going to fill out anyone's negative one.

Sorry, man, I can't find enough descriptors to use in order to register.Funny, at least a couple of others managed to.

[MooseIBe]

LOL I haven't actually done you yet Warren .. I did start to do so but then faltered and stopped. I wish I hadn't done anyone's negatives now, frankly.

[Dingfod]

Of course you haven't done me yet, you're in England and I'm in Oklahomer.
